Refrigerator & Freezer Maintenance Tips
To ensure the appliance is not overworking and runs as efficiently as possible:
- make sure the refrigerator coil is clean and free of dust.
- avoid stressing your refrigerator or freezer’s motor – allow adequate air flow behind the appliance by keeping at least two inches between the wall and the back of the unit.
- keep door seals free of buildup (melted popsicles, etc.).
Following these recommendations will help your refrigerator to work efficiently and prolong its working life.

Should I fix or replace my fridge?
When one of our professionals comes to your home, you will receive an honest answer about whether fixing or replacing your fridge will be the best financial decision.
One of the things we will take into consideration is how long you have owned your refrigerator or freezer. If you own a compact refrigerator, the service life is generally about four to twelve years, while standard refrigerators work anywhere from ten to eighteen years. Your freezer should last anywhere from twelve to twenty years. If you have been performing regular maintenance on your appliances, they will probably keep working for longer than average.
If you’re thinking about replacing your fridge, keep in mind that the best rebates occur around holidays, including President’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran’s Day and Black Friday. If you can hold out and one of these days is approaching, it may save you money to make your purchase during these times of year.
What can I do to extend my refrigerator’s life?
There are a few things you can do to ensure your refrigerator and freezer are working in good condition.
You can prolong your refrigerator’s life by:
- Cleaning the refrigerator coils regularly and making sure they are free of dust, pet hair and other debris.
- Allowing adequate airflow behind your fridge’s motor—about two inches of space will suffice.
- Keeping door seals free of buildup, such as melted popsicles and other sticky food residue.
By following these recommendations, you can help your equipment run smoothly and last for a longer period of time.
I bought a new refrigerator and want to recycle the old one. How do I do that?
Check with your local utility provider or charitable organizations. In many cases, the utility company or charity will pick up and properly dispose of your old working refrigerator or freezer at no charge. You may even qualify for cash incentives or tax deductions when you recycle your old appliances. If ABC installs your new appliance, we will remove and recycle your old appliance at no additional charge.

What Our Customers Are Saying
JR
“My house backs up to a lot of vegetation and I was getting a ton of spiders and bugs in my house. I started using ABC Pest Control about 5 years ago. (They spray 6 times a year). They do an awesome job and I’ll continue to use them. Maybe once or twice in 5 years, I’ve asked them to come out off their usual schedule to spray for the Chupacabra-scorpion and they are happy to accommodate my request.”

“First time using a pest control service — First line of contact to start service was pleasant and simple thanks to Hannah! She set up an appointment to help with an ant situation. The technician, Scott Beadles, is super informative, friendly, and thorough. He even acknowledged my dog and told me that it was ok to have her back in the house. Overall great experience so far!”
